There are many career questions about careers that seem to go unanswered.
Recently it has been so difficult to narrow the fields where jobs will continue
to be plentiful. Globally companies are
competing for the people who can help them to educate their workforce. Jobs require a variety of people to fill
their talent pool. The question that
many students of all ages are asking is how to position their career so that they will be
an attractive potential employee.

One of the key factors is recognizing that your education
must be continuous. You must keep up on
the latest trends in your field. Do you know the people who excel and get
promoted because of their accomplishments?
You can read about them in the news and on the internet in websites like Linkedin. You are the catalyst for your future career
opportunities. Don’t let others place
limits on what you accomplish. Stay
connected with professionals who were researching the latest
trends in your field. There are seven hot
careers to consider: (1) teacher, (2) consultant, (3) education companies, (4) charter
schools, (5) career counselor, (6) master teacher and (7) trainer. You can expand some of your
options within teaching just by considering the options I’ve listed. The opportunities in these fields will continue
to grow at a steady pace into the future. Join my education newsletter at http://bit.ly/1sVyCzs

In the foreseeable future there will still be a need for
qualified teachers. Teachers will be needed in public schools charter schools,
catholic schools and private schools. You must be willing to move to places
throughout the country to obtain the best job. Some teachers work on special
projects within their school district and they serve as a consultant. The number of education companies that hire
teachers is growing. Education companies
need teachers for their expertise. The number of charter schools is growing in
many states and parents are very interested in putting their children into a
different education advice. You can also
pursue your interest in becoming a career counselor. Students need a career counselor to focus on
the students career goals. In many schools the counselor to student ratio is
five hundred students to one counselor.
There is a need for master teachers who can train new teachers. We also need teachers who can work as
trainers within the school district.

A common area to watch in each of these fields is how new
technology influences the way that education is delivered. You will notice that new computers will shape
how all of the teachers interacts with each other. There will be a greater need for collaboration
among all of these professionals. The options
for teacher training may not happen on just one continent. Teachers can use Skpe to talk to teachers and
students who are living all around the globe.
People will interact globally and determine how certain teaching careers
will grow.

You must be ready for change for the foreseeable
future. You will use the technology to
keep up with trends. The use of online
courses will continue to grow and so will downloads of content that can be used
to conduct training on Ipods and on cell phones. Try to pursue teleconferences where you can
talk to other professionals in field.
You will find that there are people who are willing to help. They can point you to resources that will
help you to become more knowledgeable about your career.

Take the limits off your potential to change as your
profession moves forward. Don’t allow
your knowledge to become obsolete. You are in control of your career destiny. Another way to grow is by listening to books
on CD. Some magazines and books have CDs
that you can listen to while you are driving or working at home. You can set the pace for your career if you
remain flexible to adapt to new innovations in the way that instructors in your
field are thinking. Take each summer as
an opportunity to review additional research on things that are changing in the
teaching profession. Take the new
information and share your new knowledge with other teacher

Get ready for your career to take off in a new direction
every day. There are some great leaders
that you can follow to succeed. The response that you receive as you expand
your career options will be based on your input. Can you imagine what it would be like to know
that you are making the right decision about your career? These are the ways to improve the career
decisions you are making everyday. It’s
time to create a bright future and a new pathway to an exciting teaching career.
